I've started to have a prob with my comp and can use some help. All of a sudden whenever I click on a desktop icon; documents, my computer, internet explorer etc. it takes like 10 seconds for the window to open. My computer had been working fine and then I downloaded a ram booster program. I wasn't impressed with it so I tried to uninstall it but there was no uninstall feature and it was not listed in add/remove programs so I just deleted it and unchecked the auto start upon reboot in msconfig. I think the problem started shortly after that and I have no idea what is wrong. I don't know if maybe there was a virus in it as I have not tried virus scan yet. My comp is a dell 8100 p4 1300mhz with 384 mb rdram. My operating system is windows me. Should I try virus scan first or is there something else I can do. I would call dell tech support but the first question they will ask will be, have you added anything to your computer? Well I added 256 mb rdram but that was a couple of months ago and I've had no problems but they might insist it has something to do with it. Can they tell that I've added memory if I talk to them and give them my ref #? thx for any help and btw I'm not very skilled when it comes to computers so please try not to be so technical as I will probably not understand what your talking about. Oh, another strange thing I might add; When I click on my documents a popup also comes up from the internet and that used to never happen.
